The school formed in the fall of 2002 as a merger between St. Florian High School
in Hamtramck
and Bishop Gallagher High School in Harper Woods. Pat Domagala, the principal of St. Florian, said that schools decided to merge because both were university preparatory schools and therefore had elements in common, and because Bishop Gallagher needed additional students and St. Florian needed additional programs.
In 2005 the school had 163 students. Glenn Marshall, a parent quoted in the Detroit Free Press
, said that most of the students at Trinity Catholic came from Detroit. During that year, the archdiocese announced that Trinity would close. Richard Laskos, the spokesperson for the archdiocese, said that the closing was irreversible. Even so, several parents struggled to find ways to keep the school open.
